It needs to be faster. Mostly I do check the gitlab CI pipeline status, but in the run-up to getting rc0 out I stopped waiting for the gitlab CI job to finish, because I was continually finding that I kicked off a run, my local build-tests would complete within an hour or so, and the gitlab CI jobs were still pending, barely started, etc. Turnaround on testing a merge must be 90 minutes or less, especially during release periods, because there are always a huge number of merges that arrive for me to test in the last couple of days before freeze. thanks -- PMM
